An overwhelming 85.7% of gastroenterologists are calling for ergonomic colonoscope redesigns*.

The demand for tools that fit a diverse workforce has never been clearer. The current approach to endoscope design contributes to disproportionately high injury rates and fails to adequately serve our clinicians. We must design for the clinicians to protect the patient.

Writing for the Clinical Services Journal, Dr. Rameshshanker Rajaratnam and Ms. Jo Kelly outline a path forward, emphasizing how a multidisciplinary approach, combining clinical research, education, and industry collaboration, can drive systemic change and create a more sustainable future for endoscopy.

Supporting the people behind the scopes. For Every Twist and Turn.

At PENTAX Medical, we believe great service goes beyond fixing equipment. It starts with having knowledgeable, confident teams ready to support endoscopists when it matters.

This month, our Field Service team came together in our Hamburg Training Center for a hands-on Product Service Class Training, strengthening their troubleshooting, product and service capabilities to provide effective first-level support.

It’s another way we bring our commitment to life: supporting endoscopists at Every Twist and Turn, with service, training and expertise that help keep their day moving.

Because endoscopy is never a straight line.

The Advanced Gastrointestinal Endoscopy course at IRCAD Africa brought endoscopists from across Africa and beyond together for three days of expert-led learning, live case transmissions and hands-on training.

In emerging markets where endoscopic practice is developing, access to trained healthcare professionals and relevant education is essential, and can be a significant challenge.

Through our partnership with IRCAD Africa, PENTAX Medical is working to widen access to practical training for doctors, nurses and partners, helping build the skills needed to advance endoscopic care across the region.
We believe supporting clinicians where these skills are much needed can contribute to stronger practice and better patient care.

Empowering Clinicians with Practical EUS Training in Phnom Penh
 
The EUS Training Program, held at Khmer-Soviet Friendship Hospital in Phnom Penh, Cambodia on 27–28 July 2026, provided a comprehensive introduction to Endoscopic Ultrasound (EUS) through a combination of lectures, live case demonstrations, hands-on learning, and case discussions.

Led by guest speaker and trainer Dr. James Emmanuel, Consultant Gastroenterologist and Hepatologist, the program enabled participants to gain practical experience, enhance diagnostic and procedural knowledge, and engage in interactive discussions on real clinical cases.

At PENTAX Medical, we remain committed to supporting medical education and empowering healthcare professionals with advanced endoscopy skills to help improve patient care across the region.
